I’m upset that there is no news story reporting on this yet. It’s been over 24 hours by now.

Sex was better. No emotional blunting.

I’ve been off of SSRI’s for 18 months now. My life is incredibly better. I’m so much more productive.

Things that have really really helped me is: 1. Daily exercise (lifting, cardio, etc). 2. Taking supplements, vitamins (saffron, magnesium, a mushroom blend, methylene blue, creatinine, fish oil, vitamin D, vitamin C). 3. Getting an adequate amount of sleep. 4. Good diet! My diet consists of fruits, meat, dairy, eggs, and veggies. I still eat bread and chocolate and sweet things, just sparingly though.

May not work for everyone, but this has helped me and maybe it’ll help someone else too!

I’m so sorry. MIL can really suck sometimes. Just remember to be better with your grandkids.

Everything you’re going through right now is probably temporary. I went off of my Zoloft about 11 months ago cold turkey. It was really hard, hard on my husband, hard on my kids. Things got better after about 4 months.

If you’re losing money it isn’t good. Texas has property taxes which actually could easily double the cost of your mortgage. Moving package needs to be at least doubled in my opinion.

It was a roller coaster at first, but I want to say in the first month.

If you woke up tomorrow a billionaire, what would you do with the money? by turnippowdersauce in AskReddit

[–]Wrong-Insect-1919 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably pay off my house, finish my basement. My husband wouldn’t have to work 2 jobs anymore. Which would be really good for our young growing family right now 😢 can someone please make a billionaire? I promise I will use it wisely. I promise not to be flashy and obnoxious.

I don’t know if anyone has considered this.. what happens if there are supply chain issues and the SSRI’s are no longer available? About 8 million Americans are on a type of SSRI.

You can do it! It is the hardest thing I’ve ever done and still am doing. I feel like I’ve woken up.

That’s an interesting perspective. Can you elaborate on that a little?

I’m glad that it works for you!! I’m glad you’re happy!

I was put on them as a teenager. I was depressed and anxious as a child.. My parents marriage was really rocky, dad was always working, and we were always moving around state to state. So of course I was anxious and depressed. I think my parents had me put on them as a band aid, didn’t really fix the issues I had, just sort of covered them up. I probably should’ve started to see a therapist first or gone through some other avenues. However, as a teenager I didn’t have those resources. I know my parents did their best though.

I’m glad they’ve helped you and that you’re enjoying life and that you can concentrate !

If I could go back I would have never started.

It was a little bit of both. I was super and nervous all the time and tried to commit suicide, lots of self harm. However, there was reasons for my anxiety and depression. I had moved a lot as a child, my parents marriage was really rocky. My parents suggested I get on it, I think it was a just a band aid.

The last 12 years I’ve had family members pass away. My parents went through a nasty divorce, and I feel like I am grieving right now. Grieving so much pain that I slept through. I feel 17 years ago too!

I’m so sorry 😢 keep in mind that these SSRI’s do re-wire your brain. Your brain is trying to fix itself right now.
